This work proposes the use of an anisotropic bilateral filter (ABF) to reduce the noise in computed tomography images. The FBA is implemented in the tridimensional space, allowing the adjustment of filter parameters depending on the image resolution in each axis. The utility of the FBA was demonstrated using a standard image quality phantom which was scanned using a 240 mAs reference dose, and subsequently with 50 % and 25 % of the reference dose. Additionally, two clinical cases were processed, corresponding to routine clinical, intravenous contrast-enhanced abdomen and thorax scans. The phantom study found that the FBA keeps a better tradeoff between noise, spatial resolution, and low contrast detectability, when it is compared to traditi...
